Stephanie had been lying in bed reading when the post from Wanda came in. Bolting up immediately, she tossed her book to the side, sent a quick message to Daisy and Ward, then threw on a pair of jeans and a white tank top, tied her hair back quickly into a ponytail, and sprinted down to where she knew Wanda would be: as close to the park as people were being allowed.
Frantically looking around once she got there, the tall, leggy blonde called out, almost desperately: "Wanda? Wanda honey, are you here?"
Wanda hadn’t known what to think about where she found herself, there were so many people and she hadn’t been prepared for it at all so it had taken a second for her to manage to shut out all the noise. She’d been close to panic when Stephanie’s message had come through and she’d instantly found herself calming knowing that the other woman was here and she would no longer be alone.
As she’d waited she’d allowed herself to reach out with her abilities so she sensed Stephanie before she heard her call out. “I’m here, Stephanie, I’m here,” she called back as she made her way towards the blonde.
"Oh my God... Wanda, you're really here..." Stephanie sighed happily, throwing her arms around the other woman, hugging her tightly. "Oh honey... I missed you so much..."
She sighed, looking into those big, beautiful eyes. God, no wonder she fell in love with this woman. Stephanie had never even thought she COULD have these kind of feelings for a woman... but she'd fallen for Wanda, hard, and just cupped her friend's cheeks, gazing happily at her.
“I am, I’m here,” Wanda said quietly as she wrapped her own arms around the other woman. “I missed you too, so much.”
She smiled softly as she looked into the eyes of the person who had become her world, when it had all fallen apart after Pietro’s death it had been this woman who had helped her piece herself together and she didn’t want to think what she’d do without her.
"You... I'm never letting you out of my sight again, you hear me?" Stephanie said, losing herself briefly in Wanda's eyes. Her own eyes filled with tears, just thrilled to have the other woman back in her life.
“I’m okay with that, I don’t want to be away from you again,” Wanda said as she felt tears fill her own eyes as she saw them appear in Stephanie’s eyes. “I can’t lose you,” she whispered quietly as she tried to keep the tears from falling.
"Never. I will always find you." Stephanie told her, before losing her focus and pressing her lips desperately to Wanda's. She'd never kissed a girl before, but right now it felt like what she needed more than anything in the world.
Wanda had been about to speak but suddenly she felt Stephanie’s lips against hers. She’d never really kissed anyone before, the only person she’d ever kissed before was her brother and that had always been innocent, this was different and it made her feel safe. She tightened her arms around the other woman and let herself go with the moment.
"You're so beautiful, honey... I've thought about you constantly since I got here..." Stephanie admitted, resting her forehead against Wanda's.
“I’m not beautiful, you are. When I thought you were gone I was lost, I didn’t know what to do.” Wanda gently rubbed her nose against Stephanie’s as she realized this was where she belonged, not the place necessarily but with Stephanie.
"I've taken care of you ever since..." Stephanie paused, not wanting to ruin the moment by mentioning Pietro. "And as you've grown stronger... I've just... I started having feelings for you, honey. Feelings I really... didn't think a woman was supposed to feel for another woman. But I don't care anymore. I see people here just... loving other people. Gender be damned. And I don't want to ever be without you again."
“You saved me,” Wanda said quietly, knowing the other woman would know just what she meant. “You were there for me when I didn’t have anyone else, you helped me when you didn’t have to and you expected nothing in return. You mean everything to me, I think I know what you’re trying to say. I never knew I could feel something like this for anyone, not after, not after Sokovia. Stephanie, may I… may I look into your thoughts?” She’d never do something like that without the other woman’s permission but felt it might help them both with what they were trying to say.
Stephanie paused, before thinking about it and realizing that she trusted Wanda now as much as she trusted anyone in the world, save possibly Bucky. "You may." She said, steeling herself for the admittedly uncomfortable feeling of having the young woman rooting around in her mind.
“I’ll be gentle,” she said softly as she looked into Stephanie’s eyes, the urge to kiss her again almost too strong for her to resist but she did. Gently Wanda reached into the other woman’s mind with her own, so cautious and hesitant that it was the barest brush of minds to begin with. What she felt almost immediately was the depth of Stephanie’s feelings for her and it stole her breath away, made her heart beat so fast she was sure everyone would hear it and before she’d even left her mind she was pressing her lips to hers again in a silent acceptance of what she’d seen and felt.
Hoping she wasn't being too entirely forward, Stephanie allowed her tongue to cautiously part Wanda's lips, the first real, passionate kiss she'd ever given anyone. Her eyes fluttered closed as she lost herself in the moment, her hands actually trembling a little from nerves.
Wanda parted her lips for Stephanie’s tongue, her own following suit as she let the other woman lead the kiss. Her mind still brushing against Stephanie’s allowing her to feel everything that was going through both of their minds making it almost overwhelming as she closed her eyes and moved a hand up to tangle in blonde locks.
"Would... you be at all opposed to going back to our place and just letting me hold you all night long? I missed you and just... I want to enjoy being with you again." Yes, after a passionate kiss like that... Stephanie wanted snuggles. She's a virgin, ok? Give a girl a break.
"I would really like that. I would like that a lot actually," she said softly as she moved her hand from Stephanie's hair so she could lightly run her fingers across her cheek. This was all new to Wanda as well, she thought snuggles sounded perfect.
"Come on, honey... Let's go home." Stephanie said with a relieved sigh, slipping her arm around the woman's waist, feeling a wave of happiness the likes of which she'd not felt since well before being frozen.
"Okay," she said as she settled her own arm around the other woman's waist. The panic and fear that had been lingering in her own mind since Stephanie's disappearance finally melting away to be replaced by a sense of calm and happiness.
